When we make the enemy anxious, it means that we are doing the right thing;When even a friend is upset, it means that we are already very good!
China's electric vehicles have quickly taken over the global market, and the traditional auto powerhouses have not been able to calm down, and despite various repressive policies, it has not weakened the popularity of Chinese cars in the global market.
The momentum of electric vehicles in China has worried Middle Eastern countries. Recently, the Ministry of Turkey issued a decree requiring companies exporting electric vehicles to the country to set up 140 authorized service stations in Turkey, covering the whole country, and requiring each electric vehicle brand to set up a ** service center.
The strictness of this new regulation lies in the fact that almost no foreign brand can meet its requirements.
However, "fortunately", this new regulation does not apply to all imported electric vehicles.
Bloomberg reported that "Turkey has taken action in response to the massive import of electric vehicles from China", which is in line with the judgment of Chinese industry insiders.
Why?Since this regulation does not apply to all imported electric vehicles, EU countries have signed a freedom** agreement with Turkey, and their imported electric vehicles are exempt from this regulation.
In addition to the electric vehicles imported from the EU, the main ones left are not China's electric vehicles?
In the first ten months of this year, sales of Chinese electric vehicles in Turkey reached 1$8.4 billion ......
However, Turkey does not seem to be about to understand the plight of China's electric vehicles. Officials revealed that the Turkish Ministry does not plan to delay the implementation of the regulations, which means that the sales of Chinese electric vehicles in the Turkish market will be affected in the short term.
Turkey wants to improve the after-sales service of automobiles, which is worthy of recognition. But it is clear that this new regulation targets foreign vehicles, and with the exemption for EU vehicles, Chinese auto companies feel targeted.
This is not the first time Turkey has introduced regulations against China. In March this year, Turkey issued tariff rules for domestic electric vehicles. Interestingly, there is a difference in the proportion of tariff increases: 40% for electric vehicles in China, and 40% for other countriesYadea said that it has cooperated with dealerships to establish service stations, but it cannot be so fast. If Turkey does not delay the implementation of this regulation, there will be a large number of cars backlogged at customs for months.
As this policy appears to be detrimental to both parties, Turkey has now introduced a policy of establishing service points to improve the quality of EV services and protect local brands.
In 2023, countries around the world will feel the competitive pressure brought by China's electric vehicles. It is not uncommon for China to adopt various policies for electric vehicles. In order to suppress Chinese electric vehicles, the EU even slandered Chinese electric vehicles, and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen announced that she would close the Chinese market, and the European Commission also passed an investigation into the countervailing of Chinese electric vehicles. In order to suppress Chinese electric vehicles, the United States has adopted various means, and has introduced a number of laws against China, aiming to restrict the sales of Chinese electric vehicles in the United States.
As new trends swept across the globe, traditional automotive powerhouses failed to adapt to this rapid change, hoping to buy time for local brands by boycotting advanced foreign products. While this is understandable, the methods adopted by these countries are rather despicable.
They have been constantly belittling and ostracizing China's electric vehicles, but they have never thought about why China has been able to take the lead with electric vehicles.
Countries are aware of the development trend of electric vehicles, but Europe and the United States have failed to seize the opportunity. The reason behind this is that the capital represented by traditional car brands is currently enjoying profits and is reluctant to risk breaking through.
Western countries are already quite mature in terms of car manufacturing technology, and their manufacturing costs are low and profitable, so they are not interested in researching new technologies.
China started late in the field of fuel vehicles and struggled to catch up with the West, so it is more focused on finding opportunities. In addition, China's auto industry has the ability of macroeconomic regulation and control to support the development of strategic technology directions. Therefore, once the country has planned an important strategic direction, the enterprise will devote itself to the research until the results are achieved.
China has really woken up Westerners with technological achievements, if it were not for the rise of China's electric vehicles in the global market, Western capitalists might only consider immediate interests, and the arrival of the global new energy vehicle era is still uncertain!
